Too Deem for Him.

A Boston girl came over to Now
York. She amused herself very well for
several days, among her other pleasures
including the beautiful display OF chrys-
anthemums at Cosmopolitan Hall. She
was delighted with it. The splendid
shocks OF snowy and 1lamc-coorcu
blooms and tho now japanese seed
lings that look as if nature had copied
them from decorations on Japanese
jars, and the clean, fresh, curious per-
fumes filled her cultured soul so full OF
sentiment that it bubblcd over for the
benefit of New York man. He Camo
to call soon after her return from tho
flower show. He was charming
young person, who never by any acci-
dent polluted his person with any arh-
clio manufactured in this country. He
was turned out complete from top to toe
in English goods. and his gait on the
avenue filled boholdcrs with tho widest
awe and delight, it so closely copied tho
| true thoroughbred stride The import
| ant details of dress had occupied his
walking hours SO closely that he had
found but lttlc time to unbcnd his mind
over book, and other matters even
moro important had escaped his alton
tention, among them the flower show,
which he happened not to have heard of.
"'ve lust como from seeing the chrys-
anthemums," said the enthusiastic
young woman from Boston; land, q!
it was such q treat. L never enjoyed
anything so much in my life. Have you

to himself, "What the deuce is the girl

Fears About nndcrbilCs Grave.

The fate OF A. n. Stewards remains SO
alarmed the friends Of the late William II.
Vanderbilt that Il guard is still kept posted
about his $500, 900 tomb. Night and day a
body of wcll.drillcd, wcll-armcd men move
about in its vicinity on the lookout for pill
layers or ghOuls In addition TO these, a
system Of signals or burglar alarms is added
which penetrate many parts Of the grounds.
AT stated intervals these are set off by a man
on his six hours tour Of duty, and the re-
serve rapidly assemblies at a given point. At
night the watch is even more vigilant. At
sunset powerful flame is lighted in the
CupOla, which shines out over the humble
graveyard below and off upon the waters.
Into this dome one Of the detectives must
go Cvrry half hour and touch another
alarm, which records the fidelity of those on
watch. Every 10 hours the chief enters the
building 10 see from the register whether
each man on duty during the night has gone

A VERY REMARKABLE FEATURE Of the
annual report of the Pension Bureau is
not that the volume of business was
greater than over before, but that there
is an unexpended balance Of the appro-
priations for salaries and current OK
penses; which has been turned back into
the national treasury. Heretofore the
business of the Pension Bureau has been
SO deftly arranged that not dollar of
the appropriation over found its way
back to the place whence it was drawn.
1t is sufficient evidence of the generosity
of the Government toward the soldiers
OF the Union that in the year just ended,
nearly quarter of century after the
close of the war, there were altogether
l76,S79 cIaimsNfQr pensions considered
and 50, 1914 original pensions were grant
ed under the liberal laws now in force.
1t requires a force of nearly fifteen hun
dred people to transact this business, an
average of nearly thirteen Thousand let
ters and documents being received and
sent out every working day, and the
amount paid for pensions now reaching
the enormous annual total of seventy
four millions of dollars This sum OK,
ceeds either the annual civil expendi-
lures or the ordinary military and naval
at the present time, as well
rs the total expenditures of the United
States in any year previous to the civil
var.

"The speculation in cotton for futur,
delivery at this market has been foverisl

The reduced stocks have caused SOM
anxiety about contracts for this crop
and August options advanced 40 point
from the recent tigures-namcly, from
1866. to l1.0Gc., but there was no con
sidererablo short interest to squeeze,
and prices gave way the moment buying

reports from the growing crop prevented
any material improvement in the NOR

admitted that the supplies will rul
